  • JakeHerp Jacob Herper 👨‍💻 (@JakeHerp) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia I renewed my contract with you in November, knowing I'll move in February and your agent told me this will be the most affordable option for me. Now I'm told I need to pay a £240 disconnection fee. Your support connects me from one dept. to another and back...

  • rita_capaldo Rita capaldo (@rita_capaldo) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia snowing, can’t leave the house, the Internet has been down since Monday no clue when it will be fixed thank you virgin media 👍

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Reliable broadband connection is not what Virgin delivers. No customer support . Shameful got such a large organisation.

  • sandy_sandip Sandip Makwana (@sandy_sandip) reported from Camberwell, England

    Bad Customer Service Given By Virgin Media @virginmedia #virginmedia

  • WoleAdesemoye Wolé Adesemoye (@WoleAdesemoye) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia My previous landline telephone number was meant to be ported over and this never got done. I’ve never been able to receive incoming calls on my landline. Internet is very intermittent. My experience with your customer service hasn’t been great. All along I’ve been paying in full.

  • Spinnofflondon Spinnofflondon (@Spinnofflondon) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia The whole neighbourhood is having this problem .

  • Spinnofflondon Spinnofflondon (@Spinnofflondon) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia I have been assured by your team I didn’t need an engineer at my house on the latest of my many calls. That the whole neighbourhood has a problem . So , day 8 , still crappy service #hampstead it is proposed to be fixed by the 28th your advisers tell me in the phone .

  • Strattsy51 Steve ✊🏻 (@Strattsy51) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia why is live chat taking absolutely ages to connect me to anyone? I’d like to cancel my service, but if I was joining as a new customer I’m put through immediately. Are you making it difficult to cancel on purpose?

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Yes really need some help! Frustrated that none of my emails or phone all are answered. Where is customer support?

  • daveybuoy Davey L (@daveybuoy) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia Still not working properly. It’s pointless calling you guys as takes so long.

  • WillHeadley1 Will Headley (@WillHeadley1) reported from Esher, England

    @virginmedia Right now it is ok. The speed has been negligible for long periods over the last 2 weeks though. It’s not my kit, it’s a wider problem many are having round here

  • cherylhuggins Cheryl Huggins MUA /Skincare Specialist (@cherylhuggins) reported from Bromley, England

    @MoneySavingExp please help? @virginmedia #CustomerService on hold since 8.15am

  • carolinemeaby Caroline Meaby (@carolinemeaby) reported from Stratford, England

    @virginmedia Hi we can’t get into the shows we have bought on the media store. New T&Cs page comes up and we can’t get rid. It looks a bit suspect? Can you help?

  • aejazk Jazzhk (@aejazk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia I am on 1GB line with Hub 4. I get 20MB speed. Have complained. Agent said they can’t fix Hub 4. Engineer replaced a new Hub 4. Result the same 20MB on 1 GB line. I am fed up. Can Anyone please help. A very loyal VM customer 😡

  • t1m1964 tim (@t1m1964) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia @chrisckmedia @virginmedia you'd be expecting a fix within an hour or two if Chris stopped sending you the news, which he and his team does every day. And you know they would get you something pretty quickly.

  • UB5simon Simon Bye 🎪🔶 (@UB5simon) reported from Southall, England

    @NIAbbot Virgin Media has been down for me since Wednesday morning...

  • andy00169146 andy (@andy00169146) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia I want to cancel; there’s been a fault with the broadband for a while and you wrote to inform of a price rise. I’m out of contract so should be easy enough-can you let me know how to cancel please-ideally the quickest way without having to try to get through on the phone!

  • Joybalfe Joy Balfe (@Joybalfe) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia same crap different day - how you can call yourselves Broadband providers I will never know #falseadvertising

  • WoleAdesemoye Wolé Adesemoye (@WoleAdesemoye) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia is by far the worst TV, broadband and telephone service I’ve received in 20. Customer service is appalling. I was just on the phone and the customer service personal just hung up on me. I just can’t wait to leave and go back to @SkyUK. #avoid #virginmedia

  • daveybuoy Davey L (@daveybuoy) reported from Hackney, England

    Why is @virginmedia so consistently crap. No WiFi pretty much all week and no phone, WiFi or TV today. So bloody basic! #virginmediadown #virginmedia

  • robman827 Robman827 (@robman827) reported

    @virginmedia I'm looking to renew, so when would the best time to phone for a good deal? I rang reception try and was quoted £25 more than I'm already paying for the same service. This is why I'm looking round for other deals as I dont feel valued despite being a customer for many years.

  • PapaRedFox Papangelo (@PapaRedFox) reported

    @virginmedia What has happened to your customer service? This is abysmal. My phone is broken and trying to get it repaired is the most painful experience dealing with a company I can remember

  • OrganisedPauper OrganisedPauper (@OrganisedPauper) reported

    @virginmedia Your text and messaging service is not dealing with faults. It says call 150 from my Virgin Media phone that also doesn't work!! You forced my phone change over and now I have no internet, no phone and soon no mobile data. Something's gone wrong with the installation

  • paddislife paddislife (@paddislife) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia Hi RA, Unfortunately no I’ve only got broadband package (no landline 📞 to call for for free) and only have pay as you go with low credit (for SMS only & WIFI call/WhatsApp). Would it be possible to get the support team contact me on here by DM or by email? Thanks

  • gscholes3 Greg Scholes (@gscholes3) reported

    @virginmedia It’s @Kyledonlan who needs help. I left virgin ages ago

  • seanfitzy01 sean fitzpatrick (@seanfitzy01) reported

    @virginmedia not sure if your staff in call centre purposely lie to re contract you or really don't know what there saying and the @o2 customer service is just as bad...oh well email sent to @LutzSchueler to cancal the SIM and virgin media deal..no doubt it will be passed down

  • McMaystay23 Mary McNulty (@McMaystay23) reported

    @virginmedia Was told a manager would call me back within 48 hours- still waiting 1 month later. Now I get a reply email regarding “my complaint”. I use this term very loosely as the reply mentioned nothing about my complaint

  • PapaRedFox Papangelo (@PapaRedFox) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry. That doesn't work with my job. Are you able to make me an appointment for an Engineer please?

  • Clare_Lally Clare Lally (@Clare_Lally) reported

    Not @virginmedia calling us less than 24 hours before moving our internet to new address to say they will be leaving us without internet for three weeks (and charging!)... never ever use them, the service has been horrendous.

  • Corrupted_Tree Corrupted_Tree (@Corrupted_Tree) reported

    I must say that @virginmedia has the worst customer service experience i have ever witnessed. They are an absolute joke with no compassion or understanding. Lying to customers and causing real frustration and ager. DONT EVER USE THEM!
